He carried these things in his bathrobe pocket, and when he reached the top of the ladder he took them out, laid them neatly 1 in a row, and set about the task of turning the water on.
他把这些东西都放到了他的浴衣口袋里,等他爬到梯子的顶端,便把它们掏出来整齐地排成一行,然后才去做放水的工作。

He had discussed it with his father one day after making several unsuccessful attempts.
一天,他在几次不成功的尝试后,和他的父亲商讨起这件事来。
"I can get up onto the faucet 2 all right," he explained,
"我完全能来到水龙头那里,"他解释,
but I can't seem to turn it on, because I have nothing to brace 3 my feet against.
但有时我却好像拧不开它,因为我不能在上面站稳我的脚。
"Yes, I know," his father replied, "that's the whole trouble."
"是的,我知道,"他的父亲回答,"所有的麻烦就在这里。"
George, who always listened to conversations whenever he could, said that in his opinion they ought to construct a brace for Stuart; and with that he got out some boards, a saw, a hammer, a screw driver, a brad-awl, and some nails, and started to make a terrific 4 fuss 5 in the bathroom, building what he said was going to be a brace for Stuart.
只要可能,总是在听这些谈话的乔治,建议说他们应该为斯图亚特造一个踏板;于是他便去找了几块小木板,一把锯子,一把锤子,一把螺丝刀,一把小锥子,几根钉子,准备在浴室里干一个漂亮活儿,造一个他所说的要给斯图亚特造的踏板。
But he soon became interested in something else and disappeared, leaving the tools lying all around the bathroom floor.
可是不久他就改了兴趣,跑到别的地方去玩了,任那些工具在浴室里四处乱丢着。
